- Survives ornament-hanging without snapping.
- Cheap to print, indoor decor for years.

A snowflake ornament traced from a real ice crystal under magnification. Six-fold symmetry, fine arms, the geometry nature actually makes.
The trick is the line width. The arms are thin enough to feel delicate but thick enough to survive a tree. PLA is fine for indoor display. Hang it from a string, set it on a shelf, or give it as a card-attached gift.

Printed plastic is strong for its size, but it is not metal. We have not load tested this design, so we do not publish a weight rating. Keep it out of a hot car and away from open flame.
